The Headwaters Science Center is a multi-faceted, hands-on science and discovery experience that started as the dream of Jim and Laddie Elwell some 25+ years ago. The dream first took shape as a traveling, mobile science exhibit. Eventually, the dream grew to overtake the J.C. Penney facility in downtown Bemidji and is now part of a network of over 300 Association of Science and Technology centers across the United States and Canada. (a membership at Headwaters Science Center gives you access to all 300!)
With over 7, 500 square feet of exhibit space and over 70 hands-on exhibits, discovery is the name of the game at Headwaters. Recently voted Best Museum in Minnesota in the category of Entertainment, Headwaters Science Center has veritable bragging rights! Executive Director Lee Furuseth stopped by the morning show to discuss the many wonderful aspects that make this Bemidji destination the Best Museum in Minnesota.
